I've decided to sell my protege, as after letting it sit for a little over a year, I've decided I need to recover some debt and start over. I've put a lot of time and effort into this car, but I've decided I want a different setup. I'm going to use the money to pay off my credit card (which still holds a balance from purchases related to the car) and start the hunt for that "perfect" project car. So, my loss will be someone else's gain.

$2600 w/o uninstalled itmes, $2900 w/ uninstalled items. At the current state, it does not start. This is ONLY because the ignition wiring needs to be redone and reconfigured. It started when I was using the stock ignition, but I pulled that out when I got the new ingition box and coil. I'm willing to get it started before selling it, but the price will go up at that time.



This is a very good price, IMHO. If you take a look at what I paid, You're really only paying for the Engine and ECU.


(Prices next to items are what I paid for them)


Items already installed:

• Red 1992 DX Chassis
  Has a small dent on the driver's side fender, and on the hood near the grille. The truck lock was also popped off by a would-be theif, so I've been working on shaving it (I will finish that up before selling it). Before someone banged up the fender, it was repainted by Maaco. The paint actually looks pretty good for a Maaco job. The grille was hacked up, but I'm providing a replacement grille -- it's grey so it needs to be repainted to your liking.
• Mazda BP-26 (BPT) Turbocharged Engine (~$1200)
  In great condition. And yes, it does start! Though my project isn't completed, I did manage to get it started on the stock ignition afew months ago to verify the engine. The valve cover has been painted red with black lettering to match the car. It has brand new spark plugs, wires, distributor, alternator, starter, valve cover gasket, PCV, oil filter, fuel hoses, and other small accessories I may be leaving out. Everything you would normally get in a BPT purchase (except ECU -- see below) is on the engine.
• Haltech E6K Stand Alone Engine Management System w/Harness ($1120)
  Primary components are already wired to the engine (enough to get it started, as mentioned earlier). You will need to hook up additional components (such as OS Sensor/Simulator, Temperature Sensors, etc). For an additional price, I can include a cheap laptop for connecting to the Haltech.
• MSD 6a Ignition Controller (~$80)
• MSD Blaster SS Ignition Coil (~$40)
• Flyin Miata Rising Rate Fuel Pressure Regulator (~$250)
• Walbro 255lph Fuel Pump (~$100)
• Commando Alarms Security System (~$300)
  Includes knock sensor, motion sensor, two-way pager system, trunk release, and extended range antenna. The alarm will need to be reprogrammed. Since I haven't tested it in over a year, I can't verify the functionallity of it -- all I know is it worked well when the car ran and I have not intentionally removed any components (other than the trunk release) since.

Uninstalled Items:

• Mitsubishi Starion Front Mount Intercooler (~$200)
• TurboXS RFL Anti-Surge Valve (BOV) (~$120)
• Fiberglassed Wheel-well subwoofer box (Custom)
  Built to hold a JL 15w0. Works GREAT! This is the second box I built for this car. Unfortunately, this one does not have the side panels which makes the box flush with the bottom of the car. I can build these for an additional fee. You can see my FIRST box on cardomain at http://members.cardomain.com/loginology. This box is carpeted Black, flush mounted sub (no raised area), with a standard 15" cutout.
• Cheap 200w Jensen Amp (~$100)
  If you get a JL 15w0, this amp will push it fine. I was very satisfied with the sound of my setup.
• A few mandrel bends (~$50)
  If you're planning no doing your own piping, throw these in
• 2.5" Magnaflow High-Flow Catalytic Converter (~$75)
  

What you need to complete the project (at minimum):

• Custom intake piping
• Custom exhaust (Recommended 2.5" - 3")
• O2 Sensor or Simulator (Recommended Simulator)
• Boost and A/F Ratio Guages (Also recommended fuel pressure guage)
• Securing and hiding of ECU wires

Known Issues

• IS NOT DRIVABLE -- This is a project car that has not been completed. You will NOT be able to drive it home. It will need to be towed.
• Dent in driver side front fender
• Radiator has been cheaply repaired
  Epoxy was used to repair a crack in the radiator, and is visible in the engine bay. This epoxy held up for over a year in harsh driving conditions, but I would recommend replacing the radiator. Cracking is a known problem with the cheap plastic endtakned mazda radiators . I recommend getting a radiator with metal endtanks.
• Trunk lock has been removed and shaved, after it was damaged by a would-be theif.
• Using the SOHC Tranny
  This tranny will blow if the boost is turned up. You will want to get the G series tranny (from a DOHC)

I will post pictures when I get home. I don't want to let her go, but I think it's time I can't let it sit around for another 6 months.
